The total number of applications was 2,790, of which 263 were selected, and Dr. Weng's project "Design-Centered Governance for Human-Robot Co-Existence: From the Ethical Design Perspective" was among the selected proposals.
Dr. Weng comments "From IEEE's international standardization promotion activities, I would like to try the methodology and demonstration experiment of intelligent robot ethical design and realize a new artificial intelligence ethical standard called legal machine language."
Including those selected in FY2020 and FY2021, eight young researchers from FRIS became PIs of the FOREST program.
